Background: Low-flow malformations (LFMs) are rare diseases with a significant impact on health-related quality of life (HRQoL), especially in children. No disease-specific questionnaire is available for children with LFMs.
Objective: To develop and validate a specific HRQoL questionnaire for children from 11 to 15 years old suffering from LFMs.
Association of vulvar Crohn's disease (CD) with pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) has been described, yet due to its low prevalence, data on therapeutic management of this association are still limited. We here present a 22-year-old woman with severe vulvar and perianal CD with a major inguinal and perineal ulceration. In the hypothesis of an associated PG, oral corticosteroids were prescribed at a dose of 40 mg with limited efficacy for a duration of 3 months.
